This is probably the first seamed bra I tried that didn't end up giving me mild to major quad boob, didn't immediately feel itchy or painful anywhere else, and basically just seems to fit in terms of the cup shape and size. I really like the shape I get from it, but as someone else mentioned, the underwire is oddly short. It's working to my advantage a little, because the gore is really too high for me and at first I was finding after an hour or two I'd end up with itchy red marks on the skin between the breasts. So I've pushed the ... wires towards the armpits instead. Mostly this is working out, but I was finding that long periods of wear end up bothering me there now, especially if I'm moving more, but I find this more tolerable and easier to avoid than where it was pressing on my chest. But the cups otherwise seem to encase all breast tissue, so that's been great for me. It also confirms that my shape is more even-to-FOT, rather than FOB like I originally assumed.
I'd tried the 36E because it was a sister size to the 34F that is likely my actual size, and the 36E was available so I could easily check it out, unlike the 34F. I'm keeping it because it *was* on sale, but I've also ordered a 34F to try to see if that fit is even better. The 36 band is definitely large on me, and I found the Cleo Lily I got in 34 seemed to fit much better in the band (if not the cup). So I'm hopeful that the 34F will work even better.

Hello, I've got Cleo Marcie in 34F. The band is little too tight (I'm using extender), so I'm considering buy 36E. How was the band? Compared to other bras?
